derby. We did not want to shoot any engines but took liberty to try a few doors. A .357 will not reliably shoot through a car door. It depends on what it hits in the door. If the window is rolled down that greatly diminishes penetration, coupled with the possibility of hitting any metal mechanisms that power said window either mechanically or manually. It usually went through one door as most did not have windows in them, but usually bounced off the second door. We were shooting 158 gr. SWC propelled by Unique and 2400.
There are lots of variables trying to hide behind a car and getting shot at. I'd want to be up front where the motor is, and keep my head down, feet behind that steel wheel.
